to our right to make an assault on the enemy, and I commenced to cannonade at daylight with 26 guns, as a diversion. This occasioned a brisk artillery duel between myself and Hill's Corps. Our forces found the enemy prepared and strongly posted on the right, and made no serious attack. Colonel Charles S. Wainwright, Chief Artillery, Warren's Corps, page 644 of Records, says: May 18, 1864, Second and Sixth Corps having returned to the right of the general line, and so uncovered the left, Hart's, Bigelow's and Walcott's batteries of light 12 pounders were posted in the neighborhood of the Anderson house to protect that flank, should the enemy attack there. Before daylight Rittenhouse's battery was pushed forward on the pike to our advanced works, about 1,400 yards from the court-house, and was joined by Taft's (Fifth New York Independent) battery of six 20 pounder Parrott's, which had temporarily joined the brigade the night before and Sheldon's battery, making 14 guns, under comm

religion is the one thing needful. And now, he continued, affectionately pressing the hand of his friend, I am going to die, and I am glad of it. Many years before, an agreement had been made between Dr. Hopkins and his old and tried friend, Dr. Hart, of Connecticut, that when either was called home, the survivor should preach the funeral sermon of the deceased. The venerable Dr. Hart accordingly came, true to his promise, preaching at the funeral from the words of Elisha, My father, my fatDr. Hart accordingly came, true to his promise, preaching at the funeral from the words of Elisha, My father, my father; the chariots of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. In the burial-ground adjoining his meeting-house lies all that was mortal of Samuel Hopkins. One of Dr. Hopkins's habitual hearers, and who has borne grateful testimony to the beauty and holiness of his life and conversation, was William Ellery Channing. Widely as he afterwards diverged from the creed of his early teacher, it contained at least one doctrine to the influence of which the philanthropic devotion of his own life to the welf

le country sincerely wishes to get rid of Slavery, it will readily find the means. 6. Let us, therefore, do all we can to bring about this will, in all gentleness and Christian charity. And God speed the time! Life, II. 8. Mr. Longfellow was, I think, not quite justly treated by the critics, or even by his latest biographer, Professor Carpenter, Beacon Biographies (Longfellow ), p. 17. for consenting to the omission of the anti-slavery poems from his works, published by Carey and Hart in Philadelphia in November, 1845. This was an illustrated edition which had been for some time in preparation and did not apparently, like the nearly simultaneous edition of Harper, assume to contain his complete works. The Harper edition was published in February, 1846, in cheaper form and double columns, and was the really collective edition, containing the anti-slavery poems and all. As we do not know the circumstances of the case, it cannot positively be asserted why this variation occ

d by the musketry; the howitzers, fired at point-blank, had disabled the vessel, causing her to fall into the hands of the enemy. The peninsula which separates Lake Chestimachee from the sea, terminating on the borders of the Atchafalaya, is bounded at the south by vast swamps, and is divided throughout into two narrow strips of land by Bayou Teche. It was at this place that Taylor was waiting for his adversaries with forces which were greatly inferior in number to theirs. The Diana, the Hart, and several transports supported his army along the bayou. Banks, throughout the whole extent of his department, had about thirty thousand men under his command, but one half of them were volunteers recently enlisted, whose engagements, being of very short duration, would soon expire, some in May, others in August. Being obliged to leave some troops in New Orleans, at Baton Rouge, and along the coast, he had only three divisions Left—about fifteen thousand strong—with which to begin the ca

the salt (which was poured into the spaces between) passing into the bottom of the vessel, where it was not needed for the preservation of the wood, as it was in the sides above the varying water line Captain Grimes complained of the over-salting of his brig, which would indicate a lack of care taken. We are told by an expert attendant at the old State House that the brig Owhyee was of 166.52 tons, built by John Wade at Boston in 1821. John Wade was previously master boat-builder at the Navy Yard. The Boston Directory of that year says his shipyard was at Bullard & Hart's shipways, Lynn street, near Charles river bridge; and in 1822 he was, with his brother Francis, in the same location. The succeeding directories mention John Wade, who very likely was of Medford ancestry, as boat-builder. Perhaps the Owhyee, a small brig, of similar size of the two built the previous year (knock-down as the modern term is) at Medford, was his first venture in a larger line of constructive work.

with separators and improved machinery, like that used in the Melleville or United States mine, the yield would be twice as much. The alluring prospect induced plaintiff to visit Virginia and the mines, and, as he says, by the representations of Hart and other persons named in the bill, who thoroughly manipulated him at the mines, he was induced to believe that the quartz would yield from $2,000 to $5,000 per ton for an indefinite period. Indications of its richness were pointed out and exhibited to him, till finally he "became so much impressed with the representations" of Hart that he purchased a tract of land, containing 700 acres, (all of it heavy with gold dust,) from him as the agent of the devisees of one Boxley, Bronaugh as trustee, and the other parties, for $25,000.
